Wheel Building

Wheel building here at Downland Cycles is done by our DT Swiss qualified wheel builders. Our Wheel Mechanics can custom build you a wheel to suit your application and needs. Whether you are road racing, track or fixed rider, tandem, touring, mountain biking or a leisure rider, we can build or repair a wheel for you.There is more to a wheel than how light it is. It is a common question we get asked every time we are asked to build a wheel set. When we are wheel building, how little it weighs is not the first consideration, we can weigh it for you after it is built. What is most important when we are building your wheels for you is that we are building using the correct components for the task you want to use the wheels for. Correct rim type, hub type and spoke type for the individuals weight, riding style and riding discipline. Once we have these key factors then we can start wheel building.Below is a description of the components that we build our wheels with, various hubs, rims and spokes. Give us a ring on 01227 709706 to talk about your wheel building needs or if you know what wheels you want building order from the drop down list below.
